edit data

ESH Leighton grew up in Nevada, where she kept herself entertained making potions, penning rhymes, and imagining alternate worlds in the safety of her backyard with her faithful dog sidekick. That love of language and fantasy evolved and birthed her first novel, Journey Man. Her work has been featured across many literary journals, both in print and online, and she released her first collection of poetry in 2020 entitled Backwards Births.

When not working on her craft, she can be found doting on her many dogs, watching hockey with her husband, or attempting to teach herself a new skill.

Well traveled and well lived, she currently haunts San Antonio, Texas. Connect with her on social media (@eshleighton) or at her website: eshleighton.com
